Yes, this will definately improve the document. The following has been added to
Section 3.2.1:
DNS clients MAY include the edns-tcp-keepalive option in the first
query sent to a server using TCP transport to signal their desire to
keep the connection open when idle.
+ DNS clients MAY include the edns-tcp-keepalive option in subsequent
+ queries sent to a server using TCP transport to signal their
+ continued desire to keep the connection open when idle.

I’m not sure how prescriptive the document should be on this...
Would adding the following paragraph to Section 3.4 on TCP session management
address you concerns?
attractive than a mechanism that establishes default persistence and
then uses a connection close signal (in a similar manner to HTTP 1.1
[RFC7320]).
+ Clients might choose to send the edns-tcp-keepalive option regularly
+ during a TCP session to increase the chance of being notified should
+ the server modify the timeout associated with a session. The
+ algorithm for choosing when to do this is out of scope of this
+ document and is left up to the implementor and/or operator.

Good catch, this is now a SHOULD.

This is now 'DNS server’ which is consistent with the rest of the document.
